and here are my LotW standings for my old callsign SV1DKL as of 07 January 2013:

Although I work all kinds of modes, I am a keen CW enthusiast. I love DXing, Contesting, High Speed Telegraphy, chasing interesting awards & Trophies and I always try to improve my Operating Techniques, my Antennas & my Station's performance.

Born 1977 in Athens, Greece and initially licensed as SV1DKL at 1994. Moved to Rhodes Island, Dodecanese (EU-001) at 2003 and changed my callsign to SV5DKL.

About my QSL policy:

Though I am a bureau user, bureau QSL cards need to take a long journey to reach me, so you've got to be very patient. However, every card that is received is being answered the same way it arrived. All of my QSOs are always uploaded to LotW.
If you are in need of my paper QSL card, just send me yours via snail mail (QRZ.com address is OK) with a SASE and sufficient return postage. Direct QSL requests are usually answered in a week's time from delivery.

For special calls I have used in the past (J41DKL, J41Y, SX5R) please don't use the bureau, due to services restrictions of RAAG's QSL bureau.

Please, do support the DX Code of Conduct as I do
